Rotator Cuff Injuries

Rotator cuff injuries are common in sports that involve repetitive overhead motions, such as baseball, tennis, volleyball, and swimming. These injuries can range from inflammation (tendinitis) to partial or complete tendon tears, often causing shoulder pain, limited range of motion, and reduced strength. Early rehab is key to restoring function and avoiding long-term issues.
